Disclaimer: Notices of GOP candidate events are provided solely for informative purposes and are NOT to be construed as an endorsement or favoritism of any one candidate over another. Our official position as the Republican Party of Sarasota County is that we are dedicated to assisting our Republican candidates, but the Republican Party of Sarasota County will not endorse any one candidate should there be more than one Republican running for the same office (unless a specific vote to that effect has been taken by the full executive committee). We do wish to promote active participation on campaigns and that is gained through individual members being aware of candidates and candidate events, and individually supporting candidates of their choice.
